“Filipino hospitality at its best”. I always like to fly with Philippine Airlines because of its overall hospitality and outstanding execution of inflight service. I believe Filipinos are mostly genuine, helpful, friendly and caring and these values really stand out. Nice documentary Josh.

I literally just got off this airline from Manila to JFK, and even the experience in economy class is amazing. Yes, there are it’s downsides, like a huge line for the bathroom, but the seats are comfortable, I thought the food was pretty okay, (I think they could do better), and the crew was so caring, and nice. I would reccomend this airline highly. Great review dude! Keep up the good work.

Asia's first and existing airline is back on its feet!

I flew them in economy and it was my best economy longhaul ever, aircraft cleanliness, catering, everything on top. Too bad they only fly from London in Europe.

Philippine Airlines - founded in 1941 and is the first and oldest commercial airline in Asia operating under its original name.

Philippine Airlines has really stepped up its game quite a bit. Very nice aircraft and service.

I flew on Philipine Airlines in November 2018 on the Heathrow-Manila flights PR721 & 721 and had a A350 both ways (RP-C3506 out and 3504 back). I was in economy and found it to be a good experience. I am quite tall at over 6ft (186cm) but had no trouble with the long flights as the seat pitch was so good, more room than Thai Airways which is the only other carrier i have been on long haul with. The A350 took off quite fast compared to other aircraft i have been on (A340-300, A340-600, A380, B747 & B777) and the flight was about an hour shorter than when i last flew on Philipines which used an A340-300. The food on this trip was quite good for steerage class and the cabin crew were friendly and helpfull throughout. The only bad point of my trip was getting onto the aircraft at Ninoy Aquino to come home, a right old rigmarole with about 3 lots of security before you get on the plane-there's even another security check after the main security check when you are airside at the airport! But overall a great airline to fly with.

Economy class on Philippine airlines -- My wife and I took a new A350 from San Diego to Manila last April on Philippine airlines and it was very nice. I am 6-0 tall and 300 lbs and I had enough room -- wife is 5-3 and 125 lbs - seats were comfortable and a sufficient amount of room (width). Other than serving "Asian" foods (rice, fish, etc.) and NOT giving full cans of pop, I was VERY happy with Philippine airlines, their staff and their procedures. I would definitely fly them again!

compared to the major ASEAN airlines, PAL is really improving their cabin.

[lewpaul]

Heres the catch, Once you fly business its hard to go back to economy

[MarcLiberts]

Nice review! I'm going the PAL A350-900 from JFK-MNL in February 2019. Can't wait. Thank you for posting this informative and thorough review!

Mabuhay! Thank you for choosing Philippine Airlines! Asia’s first airline.

[raphaeledralin]

I tried the premium seats on that same aircraft from Mnl to sfo. It was so comfy!!! We got a free upgrade

[isaacflyaway]
